Anybody heard Krell SACD mkIII?

got one last month to replace mk2 which replaced mk1. quiet and quick operation, and bigger soundstage with better detail. closer to evo sound than to mk 2 sound. be warned - if u changed cables to suit your mk 2, then youll have to do it again, thats how different it sounds. try to 'forget' to give back the old remote control - new ones rubbish. what happened to the big metal ones we used to get?

I got mine mkIII 10 days ago.No need for cable change here (i am using VH Flavor 4).So far-perfect.For some reason refuses to play David Gilmour cd "On the Island"Both remoes are junk.I wish they had an option for the metal one with like only 6 buttons.I would love to disconnect other channels and replace RCAs (too short,too close)but knowing it's history afraid to void the warranty.

Mine will not play a new DECCA release of the Beethoven Sonatas Disc 1..Disc 2 is fine! Sometimes it also will play Disc 1, maybe 1 in 5 times. When it identifies the disc it will play it flawlessly on repeat..go figure. FYI, when I first got the player back from repair I had it linked via the 12 volt trigger to my 400xi and experienced a couple of data drops..instantaneous ones. I decided to disconnect the trigger and it has been flawless since? Maybe the connection opens it up for electrical hiccups that the 400xi may experience from the power line?

I second the opinion that the old remote is better..the new one is quirky and unreliable. FYI, get some mapleshade heavyfeet and heavyhat weights for the SACD Standard and use them into wood (butcher block or maple)...your jaw will drop at how vastly improved an already great player can sound!!

I have had mine for a month now and it has started to open up. What a HUGE upgrade from the MK2. It is a whole different world. The unit is still breaking in- it just keeps getting better and better. Well worth the upgrade! Well worth the wait-8 weeks!
